RESUMO
RESUMEN Introducción: La llegada de la pandemia de COVID-19 al Perú requirió una respuesta inmediata y múltiples cambios tanto en la atención sanitaria como en el entrenamiento de los profesionales de la salud. La Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia implementó el Programa de Teleconsulta Docente (PTD), para continuar con la formación de estudiantes de medicina en un entorno virtual, sin embargo, se desconoce la aceptación de los involucrados respecto a una educación virtual, condición que puede reflejar lo ocurrido en otras escuelas de medicina del país. Objetivo: nuestro estudio buscó evaluar la percepción de alumnos y docentes respecto al PTD. Métodos: estudio observacional, descriptivo y transversal. Se elaboró un cuestionario para explorar las percepciones de la telemedicina en el escenario de la enseñanza. Resultados: más del 80 % de los profesores y el 60 % de los alumnos consideraron que la PTD podía utilizarse como herramienta de enseñanza. Más del 90 % de los profesores y los estudiantes consideran que realizar la telemedicina no fue más difícil que hacer una consulta presencial. El 60 % de los estudiantes y el 80 % de los profesores perciben que los estudiantes deben desarrollar habilidades en telemedicina; el 80 % de los profesores y estudiantes consideran que la PTD constituye un servicio de responsabilidad social. Profesores y alumnos consideran que el éxito en la implantación de un PTD está influenciado por el nivel de aceptación de la población (20,2 %), el uso de la historia clínica electrónica (19,4 %) y la formación en competencias digitales (18,6 %). Conclusión: los profesores y los estudiantes del PTD perciben la telemedicina como una herramienta útil para evaluar los problemas de salud de la población. Ambos perciben que a través de las sesiones de telemedicina se podrían adquirir las habilidades necesarias para completar el perfil de egresado de la carrera de medicina.
ABSTRACT Introduction : The occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic in Peru required an immediate response and multiple changes in both healthcare and health professional training. The School of Medicine in Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia implemented the Teleconsultation Faculty Program (FTP), aiming to continue with training medicine students in a virtual environment. However, the acceptance of those involved in virtual education is unknown, a condition that may reflect what has happened in other medical schools in our country. Main : our study sought to assess the perception of students and teachers regarding FTP. Methods : observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study. A questionnaire was developed to explore perceptions of telemedicine in a teaching scenario. Results : More than 80% of teachers and 60% of students considered that the FTP could be used as a teaching tool. More than 90% of teachers and students consider that performing telemedicine was not more difficult than doing a face-to-face consultation. Sixty percent of students and 80% of teachers perceive that students must develop skills in telemedicine; 80% of teachers and students consider that FTP constitutes a service with social responsibility. Teachers and students consider that the success in the implementation of an FTP is influenced by the level of acceptance of the population (20.2%), the use of electronic medical records (19.4%), and training in digital skills (18.6%). Conclusion : Teachers and students using FTP perceive telemedicine as a useful tool for assessing health problems. Both perceive that through telemedicine sessions, skills required to complete the medical school graduate profile could be acquired.
RESUMO
We present the case of a 30-year old female with a history of abdominal pain, fever, poor oral tolerance and weight loss for 6 months. An abdominal CT scan showed marked gastric dilatation due to extrinsic compression from lymphadenopathies around the second portion of the duodenum. The upper endoscopy revealed the presence of a penetrating gastric ulcer in the greater curvature. Biopsies of the lesions showed hystiocytes with granulomatous features and Acid Fast Bacilli (AFB) positive, and the cultures grew Mycobacterium tuberculosis sensitive to Isonazid and Rifampin. Subsequently anti-TB regimen was initiated achieving great clinical and endoscopic improvement.

Inflammatory bowel disease is associated with extraintestinal manifestations. Among these manifestations is the venous tromboembolism which presents a risk three times more than that presented in general population. We report the case of a 61-year-old male with a history of abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea and fever, with leukocytosis, and fecal samples containing leukocytes, partial ileal stenosis with multiple ulcers in the enteroscopy, with histologic findings compatible with Crohn's disease. The patient has a good outcome with prednisone and maintenence azathioprine, presenting at the fifth month deep venous thrombosis of both lower extremities that resolvewith anticoagulation treatment.

Chronic actinic enteritis is a malfunction of the small bowel, occurring in the 6 months post-radiotherapy, and it can be manifestated as malabsortion, stenosis, fistula formation, local abscesses, perforation and bleeding, We report a case of an elderly patient who presents an episode of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB) secondary to actinic enteritis. She is a 64-year- old female patient with the past medical history of cervical cancer who received radiotherapy and brachytherapy. One year after the treatment, the patient presents a chronic episode of melena and symptomatic anemia and 1 week before the admission she had hematochezia. At admission she has hemodynamic instability with a hemoglobin value of 2.7 gr/dl. We did an upper endoscopy, a colonoscopy and abdomino-pelvic tomography without any findings of the bleedingâ™s source. Reason why an endoscopic capsule was done, showing bleeding areas in the medial and distal small bowel. The patient had another gastrointestinal bleeding requiring a surgery where they decide to do a resection of the small bowel and a right hemicholectomy. The pathology was compatible with actinic enteritis. The patient after the surgery had a torpid evolution, and finally dies. We describe this case and do a review of all the existent data around the world, because is the first case reported in Peru of an actinic enteritis as a cause of OGIB.

La enteritis actínica crónica es un trastorno del intestino delgado que ocurre a partir de los 6 meses post radioterapia y se puede manifestar como malabsorción, estenosis, formación de fístulas, abscesos locales, perforación y sangrado. Se reporta el caso de una paciente adulta mayor la cual presentó un cuadro de hemorragia digestiva de origen oscuro (HDO) secundario a enteritis actínica. Es una paciente mujer de 64 años con antecedente de neoplasia maligna de cérvix quien recibió sesiones de radioterapia y braquiterapia, La paciente un año después de dicho tratamiento presenta un cuadro crónico de melena y anemia, presentando hematoquezia en la última semana previa a la hospitalización. Al ingreso presenta inestabilidad hemodinámica con valores de hemoglobina en 2,7gr/dL. Se realiza una endoscopia, colonoscopia y tomografía abdomino pélvica, las cuales no mostraron la causa del sangrado, motivo por el cual se realiza una cápsula endoscópica evidenciando áreas de sangrado en intestino delgado medio y distal. La paciente vuelve a presentar un episodio de sangrado agudo siendo sometida a una cirugía de emergencia en donde se decide realizar resección de intestino más hemicolectomia derecha. En la biopsia de la pieza quirúrgica se encuentran hallazgos compatibles con enteropatía actínica. La paciente posterior a la cirugía evoluciona tórpidamente, llegando a fallecer. Describimos el presente caso y hacemos una recolección de la data existente debido a que es el primer caso en el Perú en el que se reporta a una enteritis actínica como causante de HDO...

La valoración del pronóstico es una parte esencial en la evaluación de todo paciente con cirrosis hepática. En la actualidad se sigue desarrollando nuevos modelos para optimizar la precisión del pronóstico de mortalidad que se calcula mediante el score Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) y el modelo para la enfermedad hepática en etapa terminal (MELD). Objetivo: Comparar la precisión pronóstica de mortalidad hospitalaria y mortalidad a corto plazo del CTP, MELD y demás modelos en pacientes con cirrosis hepática descompensada. Material y Métodos: Estudio descriptivo prospectivo, el cual incluyó 84 pacientes. El score CTP, MELD y demás modelos fueron calculados en el primer día de hospitalización. La precisión pronóstica de mortalidad se evaluó mediante el área bajo la curva ROC (AUROCs) del score CTP, MELD y los demás modelos. Resultados: La mortalidad hospitalaria y la mortalidad en el seguimiento a corto plazo fue de 20 (23,8%) y 44 (52,4%), respectivamente. Los AUROCs del CTP, MELD, MELD Na, MESO, iMELD, RefitMELD y RefitMELD Na para predecir mortalidad hospitalaria fue de 0,4488, 0,5645, 0,5426, 0,5578, 0,5719, 0,5598 y 0,5754; y para predecir mortalidad a corto plazo fue de 0,5386, 0,5747, 0,5770, 0,5781, 0,5631, 0,5881 y 0,5693, respectivamente. Al comparar entre si los AUROCs del score CTP, MELD y demás modelos ninguno mostró ser mejor que el otro (p>0,05). Conclusiones: El presente estudio no ha demostrado la utilidad predictiva del score CTP, MELD y los otros modelos (MELD Na, MESO, iMELD, Refit MELD y Refit MELD Na) para la evaluar la mortalidad hospitalaria o mortalidad a corto plazo en una muestra de pacientes con cirrosis hepática descompensada del Hospital Cayetano Heredia...
Introduction: The assessment of prognosis is an essential part of the evaluation of all patients with liver cirrhosis. Currently continues to develop new models to optimize forecast accuracy mortality score is calculated by the Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) and the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD). Objective: Compare the prognostic accuracy of hospital mortality and short-term mortality CTP, MELD and other models in patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis. Material and Methods: Prospective descriptive study, comparison type of diagnostic test that included 84 patients. The score CTP, MELD and other models were calculated on the first day of hospitalization. The prognostic accuracy of mortality was assessed by the area under the ROC curve (AUROCs) of score CTP, MELD and other models. Results: Hospital mortality and mortality in the short-term monitoring was 20 (23.8%) and 44 (52.4%), respectively. The AUROCs CTP, MELD, MELD Na, MESO, iMELD, RefitMELD and RefitMELD Na to predict hospital mortality was 0.4488, 0.5645, 0.5426, 0.5578, 0.5719, 0.5598 and 0.5754; and to predict short-term mortality was 0.5386, 0.5747, 0.5770, 0.5781, 0.5631, 0.5881 and 0.5693, respectively.

INTRODUCTION: Flexible endoscopes are instruments with a complex structure which are used in invasive gastroenterological procedures, therefore high-level disinfection (HLD) is recommended as an appropriate reprocessing method. However, most hospitals do not perform a quality control to assess the compliance and results of the disinfection process. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of the flexible endoscopesâ™ decontamination after high-level disinfection by surveillance cultures and to assess the compliance with the reprocessing guidelines. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Descriptive study conducted in January 2013 in the Gastroenterological Unit of a tertiary hospital. 30 endoscopic procedures were randomly selected. Compliance with guidelines was evaluated and surveillance cultures for common bacteria were performed after the disinfection process. RESULTS: On the observational assessment, compliance with the guidelines was as follows: pre-cleaning 9 (30%), cleaning 5 (16.7%), rinse 3 (10%), first drying 30 (100%), disinfection 30 (100%), final rinse 0 (0%) and final drying 30 (100%), demonstrating that only 3 of 7 stages of the disinfection process were optimally performed. In the microbiological evaluation, 2 (6.7%) of the 30 procedures had a positive culture obtained from the surface of the endoscope. Furthermore, 1 (4.2%) of the 24 biopsy forcepsgave a positive culture. The organisms isolated were different Pseudomonas species. CONCLUSION: High-level disinfection procedures were not optimally performed, finding in 6.7% positive cultures of Pseudomonas species.
